Starting an Online Tutoring Service for School or College Students

How I Turned My Study Skills into a Paid Tutoring Service

I started by helping a cousin with her math homework. One thing led to another, and I found myself running a mini tutoring business—online, from home, and on my own schedule.

Why Online Tutoring Is in Demand

  • One-on-one tutoring
  • Group sessions via Zoom
  • Homework help by chat

Subjects That Sell

  • High school math, English, or science
  • College-level writing or statistics
  • Language lessons (English, Mandarin, etc.)

What You’ll Need

  • Zoom or Google Meet
  • Canva for visual explanations
  • Google Drive for materials and assignments

How to Find Students

  • Promote in parenting groups or student forums
  • Ask for referrals from past students
  • Offer a free trial session

Final Thoughts

Tutoring online is flexible, meaningful work—and you don’t need to be a genius to help someone understand something better.
